Thank you for that review. And God bless you and yours in your loss...may He comfort your hearts and souls, and rest the souls of your departed, heroic loved ones.

...and those people were heroes that day and forever and were the epitomy of the American character as they rose up and stopped the terrorists.

Just out of curiosity...why the "R" rating?

The R rating is probably due to language and violence. Whent Mickey Rothenberg(first to get stabbed) gets attacked, and then the pilots and then the flight attendent - it is a violent scene. Like I said, this is not a whitewashed version...it is a rough one to watch.

There is some cursing as well - most notably in the chaotic moments at the air traffic control towers and command centers.

Makes sense to me.
I'm not sure I want to see this film, for the same reasons. I think I have a good enough idea of what occurred, and prefer much lighter fare.
